Donations are allocated for the acquisition of data and the databases are then
published online in the JewishGen Latvia Database. You will receive an acknowledgement
and feedback on the use of your donation.

The SIG has already made a tremendous contribution to the JewishGen Latvia
Database with such large databases as the Riga Tax Registration database 1858-1917
and the Riga Inhabitants 1885/86 database-among others. (see the JewishGen
Latvia Database)

These wonderful acquisitions which are of such benefit to all Latvian researchers
have to be paid for and your donation will be greatly appreciated.

The data acquisition is ongoing and we hope to cover a wide range of places
in Latvia as well as acquiring more Trade and Telephone Directories.

It is also possible to donate through the JewishGen site by going to: www.jewishgen.org/JewishGen-erosity/
and selecting Latvia. This method does demand that the donation is allocated
to a specific project, so please specify that it is for General Acquisition of
Data.
